Lost day at Aragon

Thursday's opening day of private MotoGP testing at Aragon was all but lost to high winds.

Thursday's opening day of private MotoGP testing at Aragon was all but lost to high winds.

The Power Electronics Aspar team stated that riders Randy de Puniet and Aleix Espargaro didn't even record a lap due to the 50km/h gusts, while PBM's James Ellison and Avintia's Ivan Silva did just a handful of fast laps.

The three Claiming Rule Teams present will hope to make up for the lost time on Friday's final day. That could be their last chance for track action prior to the final official test at Jerez from March 23-25, when they will go head-to-head with the manufacturer bikes.
